When humans place wild animals in zoos, are those animals still considered wild, or are they considered domesticated? ~

Our zoo put the animals in as close as possible to their natural habitat. A few years ago a young antelope managed to jump a fence into the lion's habitat. The lions were quite wild and got a free meal.

I would think they are still considered wild animals.  To me, domesticating an animal would mean they can live among humans without their natural instinct to think of them as dinner.

They are wild animals. This post was edited by my2cents at September 23, 2018 12:17 PM MDT

They are imprisoned against their will and live a meaning less life although it might let their species survive and stop them from becoming extinct....Its cruel to imprison wild creatures.... 

Wild 
and wanting out.
Extend your hand in friendship 
and find out if they are domesticated
they'll bite your tilde off. haha

theyre probably still wild which is why theyre in the zoo

Wild but caged which is why some form destruction or dysfunctional behaviour. Whereas we were wild but now caged, trained and domesticated.
